Reviews
I brought in my Dovo
"I brought in my Dovo (of eight years), trusting them to put it right. They did it clean, sharp, no fuss. The edge came back honest and deadly smooth, exactly how it should be. This is my place from now on. When work is done properly, you remember who did it. I’ll be bringing it back, and I’ll make sure the word gets passed along……. . quietly to the next generations"
The team was very fast
"The team was very fast with my order, and my straight razor feels as sharp as the day I got it. I will 100% be using the mail in sharpening service again"
Razor was shave ready, beautiful
"Razor was shave ready, beautiful job done on the honing, just wish I hadn’t forgotten the mineral oil for my razor"
My straight blade is definitely
"My straight blade is definitely sharper than what the Edmonton store did, but not as sharp as the previous time I had it sharpened in Calgary. Due to my sensitive skin, the sharper, the better :)"

"Extremely happy with my straight razor honing. They brought back to life my old razor that had been sitting in a drawer for the last 20 years with a couple of nicks on the edge. Now back to shaving like a dream. Very quick and friendly service."
Q&A
- Hello Kent Team, I have an older straight razor and the scales have since cracked and now are missing! I see that along with a honing service, you do repairs ... would I be able to get a ballpark figure on hining, and new scales install? Can be resin, nothing fancy - black or white.
- Hey! We're not able to install or repair scales unfortunately :( The repairs that's mentioned is more for chips in the blade so the honing would be $20 if there's not chips.
- I just mailed in two vintage straight razors for sharpening. I didn’t follow your instructions to the letter butbsentbthevrazots in packaging that the Post Office recommended. Thevrazors are in a leather case and surrounded by bubble wrap. I hope this is okay.
- Hey Alan, no worries, that should be fine!
- Do you folks happen to sharpen Mezzotint Rockers? And how much would that cost?
- Hey there, unfortunately no we don't sharpen Mezzotint Rockers, it is a specialise skill and as they don't come by very often, we haven't spent time working on how to do it. Sorry we can't be of more help! - Ellie
- Hey there , I am located on Vancouver island and wondering if you do a mail in razor sharpening honing service out of any of your locations? If so what would the costs involved be? Cheers
- Hey there, we actually have this service [here] {https://www.kentofinglewood.com/products/mail-in-straight-razor-honing} which has all the details on mail in honing. - Ellie
- Hello, What would you recommend to properly disinfect and sterilize a vintage straight razor bought in an antique boutique ? Thanks
- Yes, that would be great idea. Also, it'll likely new edge. If you bring it into our store, we'll be happy to hone it as well as sterilize it.
